A major strike by Deutsche Bahn train drivers has brought Berlin’s main railway station to a standstill. As a result of the strike, almost all long-distance and suburban trains have been cancelled. As our correspondent saw, the station building, which is usually packed not only at rush hour but throughout the day, is now almost empty. Regional trains only leave from two platforms. The reason for the action is the wage dispute between Deutsche Bahn and the union. The union is demanding a pay rise of 555 euros per month for train drivers and a reduction in the working week from 38 to 35 hours for shift workers, while maintaining full pay. Источник: Lord Of War
